Innovation Funding

Services

R&D

The UK government remains committed to promoting investment in innovation and the R&D tax credit programme continues to provide significant opportunities to recover development costs. The UK offers two programmes with different levels of benefits – one for Large companies and another for Small or Medium sized Enterprises (SME’s). Braithwaite offers clients a complete host of services that are designed to maximize their R&D Tax Credits with minimum disruption to their internal operations.

Risk Management

Success in claiming Innovation Incentives involves an increasingly high level of compliance. We bring full transparency to the process and offer deep program-specific technical, financial and legal expertise, delivered in a tailored format according to your specific needs. Where required, we assist where situations start to go sideways, or the outcome is not what was expected. We advise on preparing for an HMRC review, and we attend reviews with our clients. Braithwaite is by your side throughout the entire process.

Grants

Braithwaite UK works with companies to identify potential sources of funding and develop the most effective innovation funding strategy for them. An R&D Tax Credit claim does not exclude companies from seeking grant funding in the UK. It is important for companies to consider the two aspects of innovation funding in parallel to maximize their benefit. The combination of Innovate UK, Patent Box and Creative Sector Tax Credits create numerous opportunities for funding innovation in the UK.
